Khaos Williams

He only takes Williams because the takedown route is wide open -- 'a silver platter,' in his words -- then doubts Williams uses it and tells fans to skip betting this one and 'crack a root beer' instead.

Khaos Williams is a good striker with a lot of power and a pretty good leg kick, though he also gets drawn into brawls. His once-elite knockout power ('the death touch') hasn't shown up as much in recent fights. His grappling is decent, with good takedown defense and brutal ground-and-pound once on top, but he has not attempted takedowns at all in the UFC even though he did on the regional scene -- the analyst calls using that path here a very clear, wide-open route to victory if he chooses to take it.

He predicts Williams will 'spark him' and 'get this win likely by knockout', naming the deciding factor ('leans hardest') as Gustaffson's back-to-back weight cuts.

Carries true fight-ending pop behind his hands, a dangerous leg kick, and enough one-punch ability to hurt anybody clean, though he is prone to getting pulled into messy, careless brawls. His ground game grades out as decent, anchored by reliable takedown denial and ugly ground strikes if he ends up on top, even though he rarely shows takedown offense once inside the Octagon. He is favored to finish this one, aided by an opponent coming off a brutal fight week.

He narrowly favors Bonfim ('just slightly better') after calling it 'a really tough one,' but explicitly tells viewers to stay away from betting it and says he 'will not be surprised' by a Williams knockout.

A heavy-handed power striker known for a solid leg kick and picking his shots well, with real one-punch finishing ability. He rarely uses his grappling offensively inside the UFC, though he showed real takedown ability and brutal ground-and-pound before reaching the promotion, and has pretty good takedown defense. As of 2025-02-11.

Strong, explicit conviction language -- 'big on Carlston Harris', paired with a stated disagreement with the market price. Self-aware worry about looking foolish if wrong is an aside about being wrong, not a hedge on the win itself, so this stays at clear rather than being pulled to lean.

A good striker with real power and a good leg kick who needs to keep the fight at range and avoid being drawn into a brawl, where Harris's length grappling becomes live. His volume is explicitly inconsistent -- hit or miss between fights -- which costs him on scorecards when he instead waits and loads up for one big shot. His takedown defense is solid from the regional scene, though not shown off yet in the UFC.

He settles on Khaos Williams, predicting Williams puts Bedoya to sleep because Bedoya's striking defense cannot hold up against someone with fight-ending power. Unhedged on the winner; a brief aside that he doesn't think the take is crazy is mild self-awareness about the pick, not doubt about the outcome.

An explosive, fight-ending striker -- the analyst calls his power 'stupid amounts,' enough that landing clean ends the fight outright. Usually good volume, though he can inexplicably 'get stuck' and stall output at times. Heavy leg kicks. Decent wrestling with good takedown defense (shown takedowns on the regional scene too), and his ground-and-pound is described as dastardly and heavy if the fight does hit the mat. His own risk is getting drawn into a wild brawl.
